A new Winnipeg charity is set to provide newcomers with free swimming lessons and water education programs beginning in the fall. | Founded by swimming instructor Rishona Hyman, Ready, Set, Swim! aims to remove financial, linguistic and accessibility barriers that prevent newcomers from learning water-safety techniques that could save lives. | “Knowing how to swim safely should not be a privilege; it should be a fundamental right,” said Hyman, who also runs Aqua Essence Swim Academy. | Children from six to 18 years old will be eligible for the eight-week program, which teaches the official Swim to Survive curriculum in half-hour lessons.
